Joey, who was this that said women voting started the moral decline?<br />
<br />
It seems though that only the most hardcore (and religious) pro-lifers are actually against birth control. Most people I know who just "think abortion is wrong" (but are usually still sexually active, etc) are for birth control, or say that you should take birth control in the first place so you don't have to get an abortion. Gee, how logical! I think the same even though I say if the b.c. fails, you should have the abortion…

I guess it is the people who vote based on anti-abortion views that also hate birth control.

Stupid jerks can't even read their own stupid holy book. Leviticus states quite clearly, more than once, that "the life of the creature is in the blood." So, according to the bible, life begins something like 18 days after conception.<br />
It's really about the church hierarchy controlling the sex drive of its members--if you can exert control over such basic desires, complete control is just a small step away. That's why the old testament is so full of rules about sex, food, clothes, and all the…

Every major problem on this planet is caused by or exacerbated by the fact that we now have in excess of 6.5 BILLION people on this planet. Its the big elephant in the room that nobody seems to want to talk about. We are starting to have some serious pollution of our oceans. When we start killing off the diatoms in our seas then the worlds oxygen supply will start to dwindle and the population problem will cure itself!

Ugh, FURIOUS doesn't even describe my feelings on this. Despite the fact that my uterus is NOBODY else's business, do ANY of these whack jobs know that birth control pills are taken for other conditions too, such as Polycycstic Ovary Syndrome and acne conditions?! Or do they know and simply don't care? Or not to mention the fact that we can't even feed all the people who exist on the planet NOW?! Who do they think they are?

Anti abortionists are usually theists and I find it baffling they are SO against abortions when something like 15-20% of pregnancies end in spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) before week 20 of gestation - most often due to chromosomal abnormalities. Now if he existed, g0d would appear to care more about the health and life of the fetus and the mother than the anti-woman crusaders (mostly white, crusty males!). These people care soooo much about forcing women to be incubators but they really…

I am often a bit shocked by the men who think that they have a right to tell women what to do with their uterus. The whole "right to life" thing is a joke. I don't think they even believe it; the whole thing is about control. Reproductive rights are one of the last areas where men in our society try to control women. Fine, if that's how they want to play I demand that all men wear boxer shorts and avoid drugs/alcohol and stop masturbating because whenever they waste sperm they are squandering potential lives. Ye, as it is written: "Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great... if a sperm is wasted, g0d gets quite irate..."<br />

That's strange. You'd think all the anti-abortion folks would be bang along the idea of birth control. Of course they're not really anti-abortion, they're anti-woman, so it doesn't really play out that way. Their only goal is to see women punished for not behaving in a manner they approve of.<br />
<br />
Yes, they'd gladly repeal the 19th amendment if they could manage it. Some have gone so far as to publicly state that our moral decline started when women were given the right to vote.
